Why read it?

2 authors picked Little Worlds as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I love time-traveling adventures that connect the future to the past, particularly in a geographic area that I know very well. 

This book is set in the majestic Southern Appalachians in a small town where friends are family. A futuristic world is presented in a creative manner that causes the reader to ask questions about current events and what impact they may ultimately have on our children and grandchildren. 

Rob takes a small Appalachian community into the realm of time travel. He weaves authenticity into science fiction in a way that keeps the reader engaged and causes one to ask questions about humankind and our future lives.
